| Awlaki calls for killing of American military and civilians |
| 2010-05-23 |
| Anwar al-Awlaki, 39, a dual citizen of the U.S. and Yemen with no formal Islamic training or study, has released a new al-Qaeda video Sunday wherein he advocates the killing of American civilians and urged all Muslims serving in the US military to follow the example of Major Nidal Hassan who stands accused of killing 13 of his comrades. The video of al-Awlaqi was released by Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula on jihadist websites according to the US monitoring group SITE. In it he says : "What Nidal Hassan did was heroic and I call on all Muslims serving in the US army to follow his path. Nidal Hassan is one of my students and I am honoured by that. In a wonderful action he killed American soldiers on their way to Afghanistan and Iraq." He then added : “Hasan, who is of Palestinian origin, was "defending his nation." Major Nidal Hasan is the US army psychiatrist who is being accused of having opened fire on colleagues at Fort Hood, Texas. Al-Awlaki then calls the failed attempt by Nigerian student, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, to blow up a Detroit-bound passenger plane with explosives last Christmas, "very successful even though it did not even kill anyone." "Those who were to be killed in the plane are nothing compared to ... a million women and children in Palestine, Iraq and Afghanistan (whom he accused the US military of having killed). We must treat them the same way and attack them just like they've attacked us." Moreover that the targeting of American civilians is legitimate in that they had "participated in the war because they have elected this (American) government". Also: "If the situation remains we will see new Nidal Hasans appearing," Awlaki said in the tape. "These American soldiers on their way to Afghanistan and Iraq, we will kill them." Asked by an interviewer if killing U.S. soldiers would have a negative impact on Muslims in the United States, Awlaki said defending Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan was a larger priority. "Is protecting the reputation of Muslims in America more important than bombs dropping on millions of Muslims elsewhere?" |

| #12 This lion of islam was born in Las Cruces, NM. It has been reported that two of the 911 hijackers stayed with this weasel in San Diego when he was an imam at a local mosque. He managed to soak up about $20,000 is scholarship money while going to school here. For some reason he was able to slip in and out of this country and go to London and Yemen without too much difficulty. There was a warrant for his arrest but it was pulled back by a U.S. judge. Hopefully there is predator with his name on. I hope we are looking carefully at the rest of the muslims in the U.S. as well. Maybe it's just me but it seems like there are not too many muslims willing to live in peace and assimilate into the larger culture of residence. |

| #11 Guess it would be difficult for Anwar al-Awlaki to tell the truth - that it was really his Muslim terrorist buddies doing the majority of the killings in Iraq & Afghanistan. That it's the Muslim terrorists who hide among women and children like the cowards they are, when committing their terrorist deeds. |

| #9 OK, Awlacky, we have a warrant and you're under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be written down and used against you in a court of law. If you do not have an attorney, some liberal terror-hack will beg, plead, and whore his mother for the opportunity to defend you. Report to the nearest American consulate with your hands up. No? Resisting arrest. Bring on the drone-zap, boys. |

| #7 Yeah, Anwar, jihad's great as long as you don't have to do any of the heavy lifting, right? Plenty of Islamic retards around to do the dirty work while you hide in your tent in Yemen, right, brave jihadi warrior? |

| #6 Since 9/11 we have profiled this idiot. In VA, Baltimore, San Diego, he roamed freely after the attack. We have called for his death, over and over. Neither Bush's OGA's or Zero's went after him. We have allowed this. Time to end it. |
